The kitchen is fully stocked for real meals, with a five-burner gas stove, dishwasher, air fryer, cookware, spices, coffee, tea, cocoa, and a fridge with filtered water and ice.
The layout works beautifully for groups. You'll have three private bedrooms, including a king suite with an ensuite bath, plus a flexible den with a full bed and its own door for added privacy. A twin-size rollaway bed is also available, making it easy to accommodate an extra child or teen.
Two full bathrooms, fluffy towels, blackout shades, portable fans, and in-home washer and dryer make longer stays especially comfortable.
The heated garage includes space for gear, fishing pole racks, and the chest freezer, while the backyard invites everyone to slow down with outdoor furniture, a chiminea, and evenings around the fire pit.
For families traveling with little ones, there is a pack n play, highchair, children’s dinnerware, and board games already here. You will also enjoy the extras, self-check-in with a smart lock, fast Wi-Fi, a dedicated workspace, filtered and softened water, an air purifier, and a whole-house generator for added comfort.

Thank you! You and your group were easy-going people, considerate, respectful of our home and left in great condition. We would gladly host you again and can recommend you to other hosts.
We needed more space over Christmas while family was visiting and snug hideaway was a perfect fit. They accompanied our needs with very spacious and super clean rooms. We have no complaints and would rebook if the occasion arises.
